I am looking at buying some new cookware in the next few weeks, or maybe sooner. I noticed Home Outfitter has the Jamie Oliver Professional series sets for $279 right now. Does anybody here own this set?
I also saw in another thread that someone recommended against buying a set and instead putting the money toward a few pieces of really good cookware like All-Clad. I am far from being a professional chef, and im not sure if i really need expensive top of the line pots and pans. On the other hand im the type of person that likes to buy quality items that last a long time.
I guess im just looking for some opinions on what you guys use. Is the Jamie Oliver set good enough for general use by a casual cook?
